Resumen
Blockchain technology is well known due to the advent of Bitcoin. With the development of recent years, blockchain technology has been widely used in medicine, digital currency, energy, etc. The practical Byzantine fault-tolerant (PBFT) algorithm is a consensus algorithm widely used in consortium blockchains. Aiming to address the problems of the PBFT algorithm, low consensus efficiency due to high communication complexity, and malicious behavior of the primary node leading to consensus failure, an improved PBFT algorithm based on a comprehensive evaluation model (TB-PBFT) is proposed. First, nodes are divided into several groups based on the multi-formation control strategy of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) cluster, which significantly reduces the communication complexity. Second, a comprehensive evaluation model combining the entropy method, TOPSIS method, and Borda count is proposed, which uses the behavior of nodes as an evaluation index, and the comprehensive score of nodes is obtained according to the preferences of other nodes. Finally, the highest ranking node is selected as the primary node through the comprehensive evaluation model to ensure the security and stability of the blockchain network. We analyze TB-PBFT algorithms and compare them with other Byzantine fault tolerance algorithms. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the TB-PBFT algorithm can improve node scalability and fault tolerance and reduce communication complexity and view switching probability. We also prove that the comprehensive evaluation model can improve the consensus success rate of the algorithm, and the feasibility and effectiveness of the improved consensus algorithm are verified. Hence, it can be applied to the consortium blockchain system effectively and efficiently.
